    Mitsuki Kajitani is a 24-year-old office lady who yearns for love. However, when men show her affection, she becomes cold and distant. One night, she discovers that her current boyfriend, Takayuki Shinomiya, likes aggressive women, which awakens a new side to her. As such, Kajitani and Shinomiya are determined to have a relationship where the traditional gender roles are reversed.
